Something to the effect that we need to let sorrow carve deeply into our being, so that there will be more room for joy. Here's to joy!Sanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18245301334922883500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36130350.post-54766064700833143592010-04-20T13:25:10.375-04:002010-04-20T13:25:10.375-04:00The universe has a timing that I can conclude is o...The universe has a timing that I can conclude is only kindness...I know how very much your post has touched me today. Thank you for the honesty to be vunerable. I have spent many of my days (especially the last 11 months) in many of the same places..greiving for the loss of what should have been while smiling too much too often and not really healing. Your honesty has encouraged me to dig deeper. IT is time for wellness inside and out. Blessings to you as yours comes.Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15496142119337072864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36130350.post-75608791523422940392010-04-20T05:44:55.231-04:002010-04-20T05:44:55.231-04:00I can only agree with the others.

I hope that this sharing has been cathartic for you too and that it's a step on the road to putting Phil and his ghost to rest out of your life.<br /><br />All my best thoughts are heading your way.Argenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10532506690426639326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36130350.post-55181763273911852842010-04-20T00:10:16.931-04:002010-04-20T00:10:16.931-04:00It takes courage to put that all down and present ...It takes courage to put that all down and present it openly. <br />You are strong.

I've missed you. Your time to process and heal has been such a blessing to you. I hope you will continue to gain strength and self-esteem and find your way out of your house. This is the start of it all. Keep breathing and know you are loved and priceless.Janie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04931897043854080377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36130350.post-21871685973166696022010-04-19T17:10:20.161-04:002010-04-19T17:10:20.161-04:00You may not have been grieving Phil, but I do thin...You may not have been grieving Phil, but I do think you were grieving any chance you'd ever have of vindicating yourself. If it helps, I have known people like Phil. My step-mother was one. She beat me with a cast iron frying pan, and I am evil because I ran away from home afterward. <br /><br />It boggles the mind. You did what you had to do to physically survive, but your soul still bears the wound.quillyhttp://quilldancer.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36130350.post-68866891871193373062010-04-19T15:39:46.125-04:002010-04-19T15:39:46.125-04:00welcome back.welcome back.sgreerpitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07764262558160301061noreply@blogger.com
